Weekly Real Estate Tips
A case of “H.O.”
A distinctive, often disagreeable odor that is immediately apparent when you enter a home is referred to by Realtors® as "H.O." and can be traced to a specific source such as heavy smoking or distinctive odors left by a pet.

Whatever the cause, the source of the odor must be removed, rather attempting to mask it with "air fresheners" which only point out that a problem exists. H.O. can and has prevented homes from selling for months beyond the time when a similar property without the problem would have been sold. Only a substantial reduction in selling price will combat the sales resistance generated by unpleasant or distinctive odors left untreated.

Your Realtor® has undoubtedly dealt with the problem before and will be able help you find an answer to removing H.O. from your home should you or they, feel that it exists there.
